Nexus 5 (hammerhead) From (5.0.0) LRX21O to LRX22C (5.0.1)

The size of the 5.0.1 OTA is 13.3MB
[Nexus 5 General] Wh1t3Rose:
You are so right. I so didn't notice I forgot to do that. I'll take care of it tonight when I get home. Thanks for the info
[Nexus 5 General] CODENEX:
[MENTION=4858937]jd1639[/MENTION] So updating 5.0.1 OTA must be from stock recovery, ie, the same as we'd require the adb to flash boot, recovery, system and OTA, SuperSU binaries and custom recovery (TWRP).
[Nexus 5 General] Elluel:
You should look through the whole thing, there are still a bunch of references to 4.4.1 :eek:
[Nexus 5 General] jd1639:
Since 5.0 update zips can only be flashed by sideloading in the stock recovery. The recovery should be from the same android version as you're updating from.
[Nexus 5 General] CODENEX:
As this won't require any wiping commands, will it affect my files though?
[Nexus 5 General] jd1639:
no, it won't affect anything
[Nexus 5 General] CODENEX:
I'm following this guide. From the command lines on Updating the platform-tools,

tuens out to be an error and doesn't seem to be download and updating over a confirmation message.

Downloaded the latest SDK and drivers. after writing down recovery.img, system.img and boot.img, I'm unable to update via sideloading. The recovery screen turns out "You need adb 1.0.32 or newer to sideload to this device." I've checked out the SDK and confirmed the "Android SDK Tools (24.0.2)" and "Android SDK Platform-tools (21)" have been updated, which is possibly the ADB and fastboot etc.

Thanks.
[Nexus 5 General] Elluel:
Just fastboot flash the system.img and boot.img

Then for root access, flash a custom recovery then flash the latest SuperSU in recovery.

Or follow the thread.
[Nexus 5 General] CODENEX:
I'm totally confused on this reply, Is this exactly for updating the OTA.zip!?
[Nexus 5 General] Elluel:
Then its in the OP ↓
[Nexus 5 General] CODENEX:
But it's meant for complete stock recovery, right? I'm running with a custom recovery.
[Nexus 5 General] Elluel:
You can't sideload an ota zip with a custom recovery.
[Nexus 5 General] Wh1t3Rose:
Taking care of this tomorrow as well as updating with newer released OTAs. I have nothing going on tomorrow :)
[Nexus 5 General] AXF24:
My phone came back from repair and now the software was 4.4.3 I updated to 4.4.4 and then I'm not able to update to 5.0 as the system says I have the latest version.

I already tried o soft and hard reset.

What else can I do? Before the fixing I was able to have android 5.0
[Nexus 5 General] Elluel:
OTAs are a rollout. You could get it today, or you could get it in a month.

Or you could just flash/sideload it without waiting like a fool when your device is a Nexus 5.
[Nexus 5 General] AXF24:
My phone already was able to get the 5.0 update. And now after the fix it does not.
[Nexus 5 General] Elluel:
If you sent it to Google, they replace the device, if you sent it to LG, they swap the motherboard and other necessary components. Essentially a new device either way.

Also, if you get the OTA notification and don't take it, it pushes you to the back of the queue and you have to wait again.
[Nexus 5 General] Kabir999:
My N5 is completely stock. I have installed ADB and SDK on my Win7 desktop and am trying to sideload the 5.0 OTA update. But for some reason ADB is not recognizing my device. Debugging is checked.

Any advise?
[Nexus 5 General] Kabir999:
Okay. My driver was updated. So I updated it and I go to recovery using adb but when I am trying to sideload to file, I just says no devices found.
[Nexus 5 General] jd1639:
With your device booted into recovery and connected to your pc go into device manager on your pc. Does it show up there?
[Nexus 5 General] Elluel:
[MENTION=4828464]Sandman-007[/MENTION] Might wanna link this: http://xdaforums.com/google-nexus-5/general/5-0-basic-overview-root-options-lollipop-t2947144
[Nexus 5 General] Kabir999:
It shows but there seems to be a issue with the driver. It says it doesn't recognize it. But when the phone is booted in system there are no such issues.
[Nexus 5 General] efrant:
Reinstall the driver when you are booted in recovery, i.e., right click on the device in Device Manager, click update driver, click "let me choose from a list", click "have disk", then navigate to where you downloaded the Google driver.
[Nexus 5 General] Kabir999:
I tried that. But in recovery it says that the drivers are not recognized.
[Nexus 5 General] efrant:
You got the drivers from here, right?

http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html

And they're unzipped, right?
[Nexus 5 General] Kabir999:
Yes, I got the drivers from that link. They are in a zipped file and I unzipped before installing them.
[Nexus 5 General] Kabir999:
Tried the same in another computer but faced the same thing. Whenever in recovery, the device is longer recognized. Tried installing the same drivers while in recovery but then the drivers are not recognized by the computer.

Any advice?
[Nexus 5 General] efrant:
Did you make sure that you clicked "sideload" or whatever the option is called in the stock recovery menu

before

trying to install the driver?
[Nexus 5 General] Kabir999:
I don't think I got that. Let me detail the process I'm going through. I boot the phone in recovery through adb and then select "Install update from adm". Right them a messages pops up saying that the device isn't recognized and the same is confirmed when I write the commend to sideload the update.
[Nexus 5 General] efrant:
Right, so when you select "Install update from adb", and you get the message that the device is not recognized, then at that point is when you need to install the driver using the method I detailed earlier (i.e, click on "have disk").
[Nexus 5 General] Kabir999:
Right, so I re-installed the drivers and this solved the problem device identification problem. But when I side load the OTA update, it stops after some time. The first time it got stuck after 4% and then 11%. No progress after that.
[Nexus 5 General] Kabir999:
Finally installed the OTA update. The laptop I was using had USB 3 and I think that was the issue. Because when I used a desktop with USB 2 everything went smoothly.
[Nexus 5 General] Kvidli:
Had problems with error:no device - installed drivers while in recovery, everything went fine..thanks for the great guide :) I got sick of waiting for official OTA :)
[Nexus 5 General] Cowboy_Henk:
Ok I never got around what you said but the OTA notification has disappeared on its own?!! How come?

And when I go to about phone - software updates it says there is no update available but I'm on 4.4.4??

It's not a big problem because I'm waiting for Xposed for lollipop
[Nexus 5 General] Wh1t3Rose:
There is a system. After you dismiss the OTA, you are put at the back of the queue. After 1-2 weeks you should receive the OTA again. But you have to wait your turn. Google Sends it out in batches or waves 2 times a day. You just need to wait now.
[Nexus 5 General] exhibit1234:
Hi,

My phone seems stuck in a bootloop. I don't have any backups. I was running stock 4.4.4 and I updated the google app and then I uninstalled the update and immediately couldn't get back to the homescreen. I don't know what to do. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks..
[Nexus 5 General] Elluel:
Reflash.
[Nexus 5 General] exhibit1234:
All I can do right now is enter the bootloader. I don't have a custom recovery or image to flash.
[Nexus 5 General] Elluel:
Factory images are flashed with fastboot while in the bootloader.
[Nexus 5 General] exhibit1234:
I don't have adb setup on my computer.
[Nexus 5 General] Elluel:
Then you'll have to either set it up or not be able to use your device.
[Nexus 5 General] jd1639:
Google 15 second adb install xda
[Nexus 5 General] exhibit1234:
I can't even access the settings on my phone to turn on USB debugging.
[Nexus 5 General] Elluel:
USB debugging only applies to ADB while in Android. It is completely irrelevant for fastboot while in bootloader, or ADB while in recovery.

I am having a status 7 error

So I have been trying to update my nexus 5 to Lollipop, Strangely the update massage that i had is no longer showing and it tells me I am up to date.

Therefore I tried following this tutorial, but i got status 7 error.

I am currently running 4.4.4 (KTU84P), i was trying to use the OTA from here (LRX21O from KTU84P)

This is the error that I got.

(I have uninstalled exposed, running rooted stock, and before flashing i wiped cashe and dalvik)

Help would be greatly appreciated.
[Nexus 5 General] jd1639:
You have to be 100% stock recovery, system, kernel, and radio for the ota to work. Some where along the line something got changed. I'd recommend you flash the system.img from 4.4.4 with fastboot and try the ota again.
[Nexus 5 General] DeadlyUser:
Finally! it worked.

had some issues with windows disconnecting every second, so I had to reinstall the drivers.

then I used WugFresh toolkit to flash the system.img like you suggested, then i got prompted with the an OTA to 5.0.1 which failed.

so I flashed the recovery.img and the OTA worked ! took like 15 min for it finish up, but nonetheless it works now.

Thanks a lot you really helped me.

[Nexus 5 General] sucro:
Hello sandman,

i'm with scenario 2, which follow to section B, like described bellow,

Scenario #2

You are stock, with root. Custom Recovery without any modifications or deletions.

Continue to Section B

_________________________

Section B: Flashing in a Custom Recovery (TWRP- CWM)

(For Flashing 4.4.4 OTAs and Below ONLY!)

1) Download the OTA.zip and copy to your phone.

2) Boot into recovery.

3) Flash the OTA just like you would a ROM.

4) Reboot.

Does this apply only for flashing (For Flashing 4.4.4 OTAs and Below ONLY!), and not fot for flashing 5.0 and 5.0.1?

Do we need check rootSU's thread about flashing to 5.0 and 5.0.1 OTA?

In my case is rooted 4.4.4 with stock recover.

Tnx!
[Nexus 5 General] Wh1t3Rose:

Go read the red text at the top of the OP

Edit: I also provide all Lollipop OTAs :)
[Nexus 5 General] sucro:
I read it already :) , yes, saw it. I was supplier for previous KK :)

Now Google offers me OTA 5.0.1 497 MB, probably 5.0.1 this size , cause i ignored 5.0 lolly, didnt want update.

I'll read rootSU thread about flashing 5.0.1 on rooted 4.4.4,stock recovery, even there not described this scenario rooted 4.4.4 stock recovery to 5.0.1
[Nexus 5 General] Wh1t3Rose:
Oh no problem mate. And sorry for the snap earlier. I took work stress out on you. I'm sorry.

But yes you would need to first update to 5.0 THEN 5.0.1. This also requires you have a completely stock system and a stock recovery. No CWR/TWRP. This is a new requirement for Lollipop OTAs. This may not be the best route for you and in your case you may want to view [MENTION=2872010]rootSU[/MENTION]'s Thread :)

Yes, i have stock system and stock recovery ;). Clear, i understood, so i'm on good way :). Yes, i checked already root'su thread ;).

Thanks however ;)!

Yes, gialakias is right, i got this OTA 4.4.4 to 5.0.1 directly ;), so it is LRX22C from KTU84P :), probably Google made cumulative update for people like me, who ignored 5.0 notification, and now they send only notification for 5.0.1, where are cumulative added suppose fixes for 5.0 problems :).
[Nexus 5 General] Cowboy_Henk:
Ok I'm on

stock Android 4.4.4

Rooted

TWRP custom recovery

Franco Kernel

Xposed Installed

Can someone confirm these steps for me?

- Titanium backup for apps and nandroid backup if I want to reverse the whole process.

- Uninstall Xposed

- flash boot boot.img, (flash radio radio-hammerhead-M8974A-1.0.25.0.23.img) --> radio is untouched, flash recovery recovery.img

Everything is back to stock then I think? How about root? Is it gone when flashing the boot.img?

Then I do the OTA update in the phone itself, I got the notification already.

Can I backup the apps with titanium backup in 4.4.4 and install it again with TB in 5.0.1 ?? Or will they conflict because of the different android version?

Thanks!!
[Nexus 5 General] Elluel:
Since you've changed quite a bit on your device, I suggest you simply flash system.img and boot.img from the 5.0.1 factory images (bootloader and radio optional, if you want to).

Especially since you've also flashed a custom kernel, it could leave extra files in the /system partition even if you flash the stock boot.img. Root access, Xposed and a custom recovery could mean other modifications, too.

As of Lollipop, you have to have EVERYTHING 100% (by 100% I mean 100%) stock, including the stock recovery. You're much better off just flashing system.img, boot.img, then booting into your custom recovery and flashing the latest SuperSU, compared to having to revert every single modification (which might not even work), only to modify everything right afterwards.

Make a backup in recovery first, of course.
[Nexus 5 General] Cowboy_Henk:
Ok but I don't understand this. Why would I boot to custom recovery and flash the latest SuperSU when this has to be deleted prior to the OTA update?

And what about my question about the apps? Can I backup them with Titanium backup in 4.4.4 and restore them in 5.0.1??

Or will the apps be kept when I do the OTA update and after rooting it again?
[Nexus 5 General] Elluel:
Read my post again properly, I suggested not taking an OTA and flashing system.img and boot.img (which updates you to Lollipop). Flashing userdata.img would format your /data partition (and therefore internal storage), and I did not mention flashing userdata.img in that post.
[Nexus 5 General] Cowboy_Henk:
Ok thanks. I'm flashing boot.img and system.img right now. Do I need the modified boot image for flashing super SU?? Like it said here http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/how-root-n...ainfires-supersu-fix-modified-kernels-1471004
[Nexus 5 General] Elluel:
No. Flash system.img, boot.img, boot into recovery then flash the latest SuperSU. That's it.

Thanks man! Everything worked perfectly!

[Nexus 5 General] Elluel:
[MENTION=4828464]Sandman-007[/MENTION]

I would say that flashing system.img and boot.img is now a valid "alternate method", it's so much easier and less of a hassle when you have many modifications since you now have to pretty much be COMPLETELY stock to take/sideload an OTA—therefore the /system partition will be the exact same afterwards regardless if you took the OTA or flashed system.img. I helped a guy on the previous page by recommending he do this as he had root access, TWRP, a custom kernel and Xposed. Reverting all this is an annoying task (and is extremely unlikely to work) when you're likely just going to do the same thing all over again right afterwards.

Of course, if you have a locked bootloader and/or are still completely stock, an OTA would still be a simple method in this situation.

Spamming "omg factory images are released" and links to "rumours", news articles, etc is something that does not belong here at all, however.
